The Queen’s coffin made a six-hour journey from Balmoral to Holyrood Palace Edinburgh  passing through Aberdeen and Dundee.

The oak coffin was lifted into a hearse by six of the Balmoral estate’s gamekeepers and draped with the Royal Standard of Scotland a wreath of flowers

Thousands of people lined the route as the funeral cortege made a 175 mile journey.

Mourners paid their respects at Ballater near Balmoral as a hearse carrying the late monarch's coffin travelled from Crathie Kirk heading towards Edinburgh.

The six-hour journey to the Scottish capital saw the cortege travel through Deeside, Aberdeen, Dundee, Perth and Fife.
